ADVOCATE, Lehighton.
-Workingmen should take. more interest
in matters pertaining to their own interest:
and not leave them in the hands Of few
men. Leaders are good, and leaders are
necessary, but it must be remembered that
leaders are only men that are as fallibe as
Others and some Of them great deal more
so, and the rank and file of the grest labor
army must not allow themselves TO be mere
machines in the hands of few Working
men, look after your own interests.
Archbishop Corrigan, of New York,
says: Those who claim that land, like
sunshine and all, is the free gift of God,
and equally the property of all, overlook
the great difference that sun and air can
not become private property. as car land.
He declares that every man has right to
acquire, by honest means, as much property
as he could, and cited the Indians as an
example of the disastrous results of the
free land policy. He also said that the idea
was in direct opposition to a decree of the
Pope, ard that those who favored it knew
that they were infringing OIL the ordinances
of God.
General Master Workman Powderly
recommends that on next Fourth Of July
the members of the order, where there Is
an assembly in existence, hold demohstra-
tions and celebrations in honor of the birth
of peoples government. If ether sscie-
ties intend to celebrate the knights can
join in; If ne other society will celebrate
then the Knights should celebrate by all
means. Secure speaker to deliver ashort
address. If no speaker can be had select
good reader to read the Declaration OF
American Independence. In the line of
march and on your stands and public places
use only one flag, the Stars and Stripes.
desire also that the question of the restora-
ton of the peoples lands to the care Of the
people be discussed.''
IlcHlg OCuIEeis lh MS CtuhtuuIu, MAKES
light of the legislation thus far procured by
the Knights of Labor-for the doing away
with convict competition, the establishment
of bureaus of statistics, etc.-and says:
"What is needed to form rallying point
in politics is not number of little propos-
itons, but one great fundamental principle,
so radical and inclusive in its nature that
it will carry the little propositions with 1t
or dispense with the need forthem.p Mr.
George fails to state what his ,'great fund
amental principle implies and includes, but
we may safely assume his meaning to be
that, if the ownership of land should be
made crime by legislative enactment, all
the minor blessings would be secured
through the force and inclusiveness OF this
grand one. The abolition of the legal right
to own land is Mr.. Georges panacea for
all the evils that aiilct the laboring classes.
He does not believe that any man who
owns house and lot of ground can be
happy or be good citizen.

Robert Walp, of Pack erton, is erecting a
new residence and store room opposite the

into the general store business, and as the

that he will do rushing business. w. S.
Koons is erecting building near the same
place; Mr.. Dinte Is pntting up a residence
on Northampton street, opposite the Cath

mammoth bay window to be used as an

the town improvements are constantly be-
ing made. Let the good work go on.
